Abenomics Goes To Wall Street

Shinzo Abe has singlehandedly done more to revive long-dormant American investor interest in Japan than anybody in recent history. Next week, he takes his campaign to Wall Street, with plans to ring the closing bell on the New York Stock Exchange, and a speech to U.S. financial executives to convince them he’s serious about turning around the world’s third-largest economy and the Nikkei.

The economic address, a brief detour from the planned participation in the United Nations General Assembly, will be the latest in a series of similar money-center speeches Mr. Abe has made, in London in June and in Singapore in July. Officials say the remarks won’t contain any surprises, and will largely explain previously announced measures.
